They eventually left Wong tied up on her basement floor where she managed to call 911. As the owner of a popular St. Paul restaurant, investigators believe the men involved may know Wong and may have been watching her home. While she recovers from physical injuries, she’s trying to put what happened behind her.

“It is not the end of the world,” Wong said. “I could be a lot worse off than I am. That’s how I look at it.”

Wong said two of the men were wearing bandanas, and she believes they had been watching her because they never asked if her husband was home.

Investigators said they also parked their vehicle in her garage during the robbery, and it’s unclear how much money they took.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the Washington County Sheriff’s Department.
